Beer Review: The Main Event – New Zealand Beer Collective x Fierce Beer

I unfortunately don’t have a stout to review for this Sunday! Instead I’ve got a collaborative beer between the New Zealand Beer Collective and Aberdeen based Fierce Beer. The NZBC appears to be primarily a stockist for New Zealand beers, bringing them to the UK market. However, they also collaborate with some UK breweries and together with Fierce Beer they’ve brewed a few beers, including … Continue reading Beer Review: The Main Event – New Zealand Beer Collective x Fierce Beer

Beer Review: Heretic – Brass Castle Brewery

My Dad placed another order through Taylor’s Gluten Free Beer Network recently, predominantly to try some more beers from potentially his current favourite brewery: Brass Castle. They are possibly the most experimental gluten free brewery I’ve seen. They make GF beers in a whole host of styles with some wacky flavours to boot. Today’s brew is no different. ‘Heretic’ is a 6.4% Saffron and Cracked … Continue reading Beer Review: Heretic – Brass Castle Brewery

Beer Review: New Romantic (Mandarin) – Two Tribes

Today’s beer comes from a new brewery for me. Two Tribes is a North London based brewery with a passion for music and the arts. New Romantic is actually a series of beers which appears to revolve around the Berliner Weisse sour beer style with this brew focusing on the mandarin orange. Since heading into the colder months it’s been a long time since I’ve … Continue reading Beer Review: New Romantic (Mandarin) – Two Tribes

Beer Review: Low Profile – The Hop Foundry (Aldi)

I’m running unfortunately low on No/Low Alcoholic craft beer at the moment but I’m still determined to test out what is available. As such today I’ve gone for an own brand low alcohol brew. From The Hop Foundry (a.k.a another of ALDI’s plethora of craft beer brands) this is ‘Low Profile’ a 0.5% ABV IPA. The beer pours a clear gold with a very quickly … Continue reading Beer Review: Low Profile – The Hop Foundry (Aldi)

Beer Review: White Soul – Bang the Elephant

It’s Stout Sunday once again and I’ve got something rather interesting for today’s review. ‘White Soul’ is from Bang the Elephant Brewing Co and what makes it interesting is the style: a white stout. From what I’ve read the key difference is that malts aren’t roasted so the dark colours haven’t been imparted onto the beer. The goal seems to be to match those coffee … Continue reading Beer Review: White Soul – Bang the Elephant

Beer Review: Layer Cake – BrewDog

Much like how I’ve been meaning to watch the movie ‘Layer Cake’ for a while, I’ve equally had this beer in the fridge to try for a couple months. Released into Morrisons by heavyweights BrewDog, ‘Layer Cake’ is a 7% ABV Marshmallow and Chocolate Stout. I’m always a little concerned of marshmallow flavours in a stout because I’ve found it has the tendency to make … Continue reading Beer Review: Layer Cake – BrewDog

Beer Review: Simcoe IPA – Pretty Decent Beer Co.

I thought I’d make the most of the snowy weather to get some cool beer photos! The first beer to brave the cold was from my local brewery Pretty Decent. True to their word they have in fact released another beer this week. It’s part of a new Single Hop Series they’ve cooked up. Their first highlighted hop is Simcoe in an IPA style. It … Continue reading Beer Review: Simcoe IPA – Pretty Decent Beer Co.

Beer Review: Up Late – Left Handed Giant x Verdant

My local bottle shop owners had just got this beer in last week and successfully convinced me to give it a try. Based on the two breweries involved I was fairly confident it would be great. ‘Up Late’ is a collaboration between Bristol based Left Handed Giant and the particularly brilliant Falmouth based Verdant. It’s a big 10% imperial stout with hazelnut and vanilla. This … Continue reading Beer Review: Up Late – Left Handed Giant x Verdant

Beer Review: How Do You Do Fellow Kids – S43 Brewery

Memes have become increasingly more widespread over the years and have now reached a point where beers are named after them. Titled after the Steve Buscemi 30 Rock meme ‘How Do You Do Fellow Kids’ this is an 8% Double IPA from S43 Brewery. This is my first beer from the County Durham based outfit but I’ve heard good things. Honestly, I did pick this … Continue reading Beer Review: How Do You Do Fellow Kids – S43 Brewery
